Well, I tested this one with some success:
After booting the patched system, my re0-Interface was working fine, at
least I could transmit GBs of data without getting the problems mentioned
before. :-) 
However, on the other hand re1 did not work at all :-(. The interface was
up and running, has an IP and everything, but I could not get a single
packet from or to it.
After trying everything I could think of, I rebooted the machine. Then
both interfaces were working again. Therefore, the errors described above
when transmitting large amounts of data are back. :-(

Somehow the two interfaces seem to interfer with each other. Can I provide
further information for fixing this?
